Adam Gaffen (Author)
Adam Gaffen is a multi-faceted, Amazon bestsellingauthor of the award-winning CASSIDY CHRONICLES series of near future science fiction novels. His stories have appeared in the bestselling anthologies A SEASON FOR ROMANCE: SPRING BLOSSOMS (Cassia Hall, publisher), RISING WONDER (Robert Zangari, publisher), and WICKED WISHES (Fiction-Atlas Press, publisher). A 2020 Drunken Druid Literary Award Finalist, the capstone novel in his Artemis War series, Triumph's Ashes, was named one of the Top 50 Indie Books of 2021 by ReadFree. This book was joined in 2022 by The Ghosts of Tantor and in 2023 by The Heart of Space with the same recognition. The story "A Piece of the Action" (included in the collection INTO THE BLACK) was awarded an Honorable Mention by the Writers of the Future Contest and was a finalist in the Colorado Authors League 2023 competition. He's also been a pioneer on Amazon's Kindle Vella with numerous stories set in his Cassidyverse. He's dived headfirst into urban romantasy - he swears it's a genre! - with the GODSFALL series, a romantasy that will make you question what's really going on in the celestial realms. That was followed in 2024 by "Tracking Tantor," the follow-up to "The Ghosts of Tantor" in the missions of the TFS Pike. He's venturing further afield with a heist thriller, "The Vault & The Vixen," which will feature some Godsfall characters in supporting roles. Further down the road, he has plans for crossover novels to firmly unite both the fantasy and sci-fi sides of his Cassidyverse.He is an active member of the Heinlein Society, the Colorado Authors League, the Science Fiction Writers of America, and a frequent guest on the science fiction convention circuit. When he's not writing he is probably editing for other independent authors, or supporting them by publishing interviews on his website.Read more about this authorRead less about this author

Join Kendra Cassidy on a hilarious, heartwarming journey through centuries, as she recounts the misadventures and enduring bond with her best friend and soulmate, Aiyana, in a world where technology knows no bounds but friendship proves timeless. "Quantum Quirks" by Adam Gaffen is a delightful memoir-like narrative, blending humor with a dash of science fiction.

It's an informal, witty recollection from Kendra Cassidy, the future Admiral of the Terran Federation, sharing her childhood and teenage years with her lifelong friend and eventual wife, Aiyana. The memoir transcends the typical boundaries of an autobiography by venturing into the realms of a "sideways autobiography," rich in personal anecdotes spanning a chunk of their childhood.

Gaffen's writing style is engaging and humorously self-aware. Kendra, the narrator, doesn't shy away from admitting memory gaps, her disdain for polished, pompous historical accounts, or her impulsive, curious nature.

This approach draws readers into a world where advanced technology is a norm, yet childhood misadventures, school days, and familial bonds remain timeless. The narrative chronicles the deep, enduring friendship between Kendra and Aiyana, showcasing their mischievous endeavors in 2080s Minnesota.

Their escapades range from humorous to heartwarming - be it their Valentine's Day memories, constructing an innovative bike-trike hybrid, or navigating school challenges and celebrating birthdays. These stories highlight the girls' intellect, independence, and the strength of their bond.

"Quantum Quirks" particularly shines in depicting how their relationship matures over time. Gaffen's descriptions of their personalities, Kendra's fascination with 20th and 21st-century culture, and their contrasting family backgrounds provide a rich, humorous, and heartfelt tapestry of their lives.

The book seamlessly integrates sci-fi elements, like longevity treatments and advanced technology, making it a unique blend of a personal memoir and a sci-fi journey. Ideal for readers who enjoy science fiction with a human touch, "Quantum Quirks" offers a refreshing take on the genre.

It's a story about love, life, and the unbreakable bond between two remarkable women, set against the backdrop of a futuristic world. The humor, combined with the genuine portrayal of its characters, makes it a compelling read for anyone looking for a light-hearted yet profound narrative.
